Magicka: Wizard Wars Duel Mode Plans

Paradox Interactive announces plans to add a new Duel Mode to Magicka: Wizard Wars, the upcoming PvP installment in the Magicka series of
madcap fantasy strategy games. Wizard Wars is currently in Early Access
on Steam, and the new
mode was inspired by the feedback from those already playing, as they explain:
"The new Duel Mode update was created in direct response to fan feedback
received during the Early Access phase, designed by Paradox North for fans who
wanted their conjuring chaos to get a little more personal, with purely
skill-based combat uninterrupted by one’s clumsy team-killing friends. Duel Mode
also gives new players a new opportunity to learn from expert wizards, watching
them in action and studying their moves before their own trial by fire and/or
lightning-infused jets of steam."
This trailer shows off
the new mode, and here's more on the plan:

Paradox Interactive, a
publisher of games and a duel citizen, today at the Paradox Interactive
Convention in Miami announced the upcoming addition of a fast-paced Duel Mode to
Magicka: Wizard Wars, the upcoming multi-player spell-slinging game from Paradox
North. In Duel Mode, four players will step into an arena with a shortage of
personal space, and two randomly chosen players will begin the battle in a
one-on-one format while the others witness the carnage. When one wizard falls, a
spectator will take their place, with all four players cycling into the game
until one robe warrior has scored six murders – making them the champion. Duel
Mode will be added to Magicka: Wizard Wars in the very near
future.
